Age-Friendly Institute Launches Hospital and Nursing Home Ratings and Reviews Engines for Older Adults and Family Caregivers on AgeFriendly.org
The Age-Friendly Institute has announced the launch of a hospital ratings and reviews engine on its website AgeFriendly.org and more recently, a nursing home ratings and reviews engine.
The website health section includes quality ratings for all U.S. hospitals and notes those that are recognized as Age-Friendly Health Systems participants by the Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI). Age-friendly care is care that is safe and based on what research shows are the most important things to pay attention to as we get older — the 4Ms: What Matters, Medication, Mentation, Mobility.
Older adults and family members are encouraged to provide feedback about what matters when receiving healthcare. AgeFriendly.org’s deployment of this platform to capture customer satisfaction from older adults aims to advance awareness of age-friendly care and heighten its prioritization among administrators.
